The world is so full of French grammars that the author who brings out a new one really owes the public some kind of an apology. Hence, in putting this little volume on the market, I feel bound to excuse its existence as best I can, by calling attention to any features that may distinguish it from other books. I will say, then, that my purpose-in writing this Grammar has been to produce an elementary work that should combine the following advantages: (i) brevity without undue conciseness, (2) treatment Of the subject from the standpoint Of the American pupil, (3) a strictly systematic arrangement, and (4) a scien tific but easily intelligible study of French pronunciation.
